We booked a 2 bedroom suite at this hotel and loved it. I wasn't expecting it to be all that fancy after reading other reviews but it was fine & just as good as any other Marriott chain hotel I've stayed in.
The full kitchen was very handy for snacks, drinks and breakfast. I never actually made it down for breakfast here. I don't remember Marriott's website saying there *was* a brekkie but apparently so. My friend said it was quite basic.
We did have problems with our room keys. Twice we returned to the hotel only to find they didn't work. We had to trundle downstairs each time.
The beds were very comfortable however we couldn't seem to get the air con working properly in the bedrooms. Utah put on a snow storm for us when we were there & it was quite cool in the rooms. No extra blankets either and it's always the middle of the night when you discover you need them.
The hotel shares a carpark with the Courtyard & the Fairfield Inn. There are lots of restaurants within walking distance (although we drove...walking in the snow is not really an option!). Barnes & Noble are directly across the road with their cafe. Target is a little further over and has groceries & everything you could possibly need for a nice stay.
I can highly recommend this hotel if you're looking for 2 bedrooms & a kitchen.
